by

  1. Jack Sinclair (128). Led this game with a solid game of 33 touches @ 84% DE but it was a game best 830 metres gained.
  2. James Sicily (127). At the opposite end, Sicily also gathered 33 touches with 600 metres gained and 10 marks.
  3. Callum Wilkie (118). A popular pick up this week and played well, finding 23 touches with 7 marks, 5 tackles and just the 1 clanger.
  4. Nick Watson (103). Busy from Watson, combining 21 touches and 2 goals with 4 tackles up forward.
  5. Cam Mackenzie (102). Rounds out this games top five, adding 29 touches plus 6 tackles at once again, solid DE of 86%.

Other 100+ scores: Jack Ginnivan (101)

Disappointment: Poor from both St Kilda rucks, De Koning (75) and Marshall (63).

Rookies: MacDonald (51) led the Hawks who also had Nairn (42) and Perez (30). Carroll (82) was great for the Saints, as was Phillipou (71), both have been serviceable rookies. O’Connell (57), the popular pickup Banfield (36) and Henry (26) round out the rest.

Injuries: Bad news for Supercoaches with Flanders (achilles) snapping it after a hospital set up from his teammate, the only casualty from Thursday. Will have to be traded after a solid month of scores.

 

Carlton (12.16.88) defeated Geelong (12.12.84)

  1. Bailey Smith (119). Led the game on Friday night, collecting 33 touches plus 5 marks, 7 tackles and a game best 723 metres gained.

  3. Sam Walsh (104). Very good in the middle, as he found 30 disposals (11 contested) plus 7 clearances and 7 tackles for the game.
  4. Ollie Dempsey (102). Busy game from Dempsey, his 18 touches, 9 marks and 2 goals enough to make the top five.
  5. Tom Stewart (98). Rounds it out with 22 touches @ 95% DE.

Other 100+ scores: Zilch

Disappointment: Couple here from the Cats. Holmes (91) was a popular pickup but didn’t get that involved, Cameron (81) is semi popular up forward, while Bruhn (51) wasn’t worth the hold.

Rookies: Smith (81) led the Blues, ahead of Kemp (74) and Dean (70). Byrne (47) and the uber popular Ison (40) the others. Once again just Edwards (49) for the Cats.

Injuries: Humphries (leg) the only casualty from Friday night.

 

Sydney (25.20.170) defeated Richmond (8.8.56)

  1. Isaac Heeney (173). Wild game from Heeney. 33 touches (11 contested) plus 7 marks, 7 tackles, 5 clearances, 508 metres gained and 5 goals to top it all off.
  2. Charlie Curnow (156). Massive game from Curnow who dominated up forward. Finished with 18 touches, 9 marks and 8 majors for the game.
  3. Tom McCartin (120). Repelled many Tiger attacks, ultimately finishing with 26 touches (10 contested) plus 13 marks and DE of 92%.
  4. Chad Warner (119). Another great game, Warner had 32 touches with 6 marks, 3 goals, 5 clearances and 811 metres gained.
  5. Nick Blakey (99). Solid enough from Blakey after the massive scores above him. Had 28 touches with 5 marks playing across the backline.

Other 100+ scores: Zilch

Disappointment: Anyone from the Tigers really. Short (63) probably the worst of the lot.

Rookies: Alger (74) the best of several Tigers rookies. Cumming (64), Hayes-Brown (62), Lefau (59), Grlj (57), Retchsko (43), Roberts-Thomson (28) and Fawcett (27) the whole crop. Serong (71) solid again, but he was beaten my McDonald (88). Harry Kyle (65) nice on debut, with the rest being Hanily (63) and Edwards (19).

Injuries: The issues from this game were only for the Swans, with McInerney (leg) and Melican (hamstring) listed in the big win.

 

Brisbane (10.18.78) defeated by Fremantle (15.13.103)

  1. Darcy Wilmot (153). Another super score for Wilmot, this week finishing best on thanks to 26 touches (24 kicks) plus 12 marks, 544 metres gained and elite DE of 92%.
  2. Matthew Johnson (124). Super for the Dockers, compiling 20 touches with 7 marks, 6 clearances, 4 tackles and 1 goal.
  3. Andrew Brayshaw (117). Nice game from the so far disappointing Brayshaw. 24 touches (9 contested) plus 6 tackles of DE of 87%.
  4. Zac Bailey (115). One of Brisbanes best, Bailey had 30 touches plus 6 clearances, 1 goal and a team best 591 metres gained.

Rookies: Gallop (65) good for the depleted Lions, ahead of Curtin (37) and McKenna (35). Just Scerri (48) for the Dockers.

Injuries: Couple of injuries here. The Dockers  lost Brennan Cox (knee) and Johnson (hamstring) while the Lions lost Coleman (hamstring) early on.

 

Western Bulldogs (14.13.97) defeated Collingwood (13.15.93)

  1. Ed Richards (130). Second big game in a row for Richards, using his clean ball use of 84% to complement 24 touches, 2 goals, 621 metres gained and 8 inside 50s.
  2. Scott Pendlebury (124). Ageless performance from Pendles, his 33 touches (11 contested) was paired with 3 goal assists and 6 clearances.

  4. Jordan De Goey (117). Another fine game from JDG, gathering 30 touches with 1 goal, 10 marks, 541 metres gained, 5 goal assists, 19 score involvements and 9 inside 50s. Don’t know how this wasn’t 150+.
  5. Jeremy Howe (112). Rounds out the top five thanks to 22 touches and 7 marks plus 8 one percenters and 91% DE.

Other 100+ scores: Nick Daicos (111), Bailey Dale (106), Tim English/Ryley Sanders (105), Darcy Cameron (100)

Disappointment: Another week of a sub par Josh Daicos (69) score, he hasn’t hit triple figures since round 7.

Rookies: Best for the Pies was Parker (63) ahead of Roan Steele (56), Anderson (44) and Harrison (37) in his first game of the year. Super effort from Sellwood (81) who saved the games for the Dogs with a big mark. After him came Lewis (76), Jones (59), Jaques (43) and Hynes (27).

Injuries: Pretty tame on Saturday night, just McStay (eyelid) listed for the Pies.

  2. Connor Idun (125). Also elite numbers for Idun, his 29 touches and 14 marks were complemented by 97% DE.
  3. Lachie Ash (119). Back in the backline and had the monopoly of kick ins, overall resulting in 34 disposals plus 11 marks and 569 metres gained.
  4. Max Gawn (118). Solo ruck this game for Max to produce a serviceable late round C score, having 22 touches (11 contested) plus 8 marks and 30 hitouts.

Disappointment: Pickett (74) once again kept quiet, Steele (72) much the same. Oliver (80) quiet in the Giants big win.

Rookies: Just the two rookies for the Giants, with Gruzewski (81) and Gothard (74) scoring well in the win. Latrelle Pickett (64) the best for the Demons ahead of Sharp (52), Laurie (43), Cross (39), Jefferson (33) and Moniz-Wakefield (29).

Injuries: Petty (foot) and the luckless Coniglio (hamstring) the casualties here.

 

West Coast (12.13.85) defeated Essendon (8.7.55)

  1. Rueben Ginbey (131). Just did so much right down back, having 17 touches @ 94% DE plus 11 intercepts, 5 marks and 8 one percenters.
  2. Liam Baker (110). Best game of his season by far, Baker had 25 touches (12 contested) but ran @ 92% DE to boost his score.

Other 100+ scores: Williem Duursma/Milan Murdock (102)

Disappointment: Parish (67) horrid with ball in hand. Bailey Williams (77) not as dominant as the past fortnight.

Rookies: Robey (92) very good for the Bombers as he keeps making money, as does Farrow (59). Day-Wicks (56), Cox (55) and Kondogiannis (35) the rest. Murdock (102) was fantastic with 19 touches and 3 goals, while Duursma (102 as well) had 25 touches, 1 goal and 7 marks. Bo Allan (76) also very good, as was Johnston (64), with Lindsay (59) and Champion (23) rounding out the rest.
